Hello Again. Tarik wrote: "Personally I go for branded RAM every time..... Not everyone would agree, and this topic has come up many times on the Ti list..." Thank you Tarik. Any reason to go with Crucial direct rather than a Crucial chip sold on ebay? Crucial direct is more expensive? Also, about this issue being on the Ti list before. I went to the archives after reading your note - but couldn't figure out how to search just the Ti archives. Is it possible? If so, how? Thanks.
